The SAT Suite of Assessments— the SAT (grade 11), PSAT/NMSQT (grades 10 and 11), PSAT10 (grade 10), and PSAT 8/9 (grade 9)—systematically and progressively measures the knowledge and skills that are essential for college and career readiness and success. Together, the tests reflect meaningful, engaging, and challenging work that students find in the best middle and high school courses taught today. Schools can use the results of the tests to connect assessment and instruction—the backbone of a sound education.  The SAT Suite focuses on a deep understanding of the skills and knowledge shown by current research that matter most for college and career readiness and success.

• Problems grounded in real-world contexts Questions directly relate to college and career using charts, graphs, and passages from science, social science, and other majors and careers.
